she's tough too. Probably more tough being so light. But woman can be furnaces. My wife is hot to the touch.. If I hold her hand for a few seconds I feel like it's a torch.
I'm using the HF mats. They work and are pretty cheap. A double layer helps when the floor is very cold, but the mats can slide. When I was spending quality time at the lathe, I doubled up. What also helps a lot, is to wear a hat. Wearing a hat will keep your feet warmer. That's because the brain needs to be kept warm and your body restricts blood flow to your extremities to keep your core and brain warm. A mat and a hat!
Never have tried them. Even if the socks hold up, there's the battery problem. They only have so much capacity, and you have to carry them on you. Suppose with lithiums, they might be better, but I wouldn't want a bunch of 18650's strapped to my feet.
Yes indeed! I often use an acrylic cap. Unlike wool, I can just toss it in the wash when it gets dirty.
The good thing about these calipers is that I bought a couple when they were only $9.95. So if I drop it, it won't be a tragedy. The HF calipers are almost expendable. If I need a rough measurement, they are fine. For something important I use micrometers.
